What to Expect
You arrive in Shima, a coastal city in Mie Prefecture known for its connection to Ise-Shima National Park and the traditions of the Ama diving culture. As you meet your local guide, you get your first sense of how the city’s after-dark atmosphere differs from larger urban centres — quieter streets, neighbourhood bars, and a drinking culture shaped by the rhythms of a working seaside town.
From your first stop, the evening moves at a relaxed pace. You walk with your guide between three distinct bars, each within the same walkable area. At every venue, you order drinks and food directly, choosing from what’s on offer at each place. The shift from one bar to the next gives you a feel for how locals move through the area on a typical night out, rather than staying fixed in one spot.
By the time you reach the third bar, you have sat across three different counters, ordered independently in a local setting, and built a picture of Shima’s neighbourhood drinking culture through direct participation. The evening closes with a clearer, ground-level understanding of how locals in this part of Mie Prefecture spend their nights.
